Whats up realmers?...man, I've been dying to say that! So, I am so happy to bring you my very first custom, Darkseid! The first in my own custom DC Universe! So, he started life as Marvel Infinite series Ultimate Green Goblin BAF. Arms and legs have hundreds of small pieces cut off to get that "rocky" textured look. You can see what I mean in the WIP shots. Next notable change is adding 3/4 of an inch to his lower legs, cutting his shins in half, spacing them equally, then filling the gap with sculpt. Speaking of sculpt, the boots, belt, and glove cuffs are sculpt, and his head is a completely scratch built head from sculpt...(of which Im thrilled how it turned out!) And of course the led lights in his head...4 lights, a 4 volt watch battery, and a custom harness inside the body to make changing the battery nice and easy! Switch mounted just below his head in back. Polished off with Testors, a light dry brush of black and grey, and Darkseid was ready to rule with the iron fist of a god king! Thanks for looking everyone! And Thank you to all who devote such time and talent to this craft...you were my insperation, and to each and every artist on this site, I commend and thank you! Till the next one.... -3G
Super badass, the light-up eyes are really impressive and the texturing is exquisitely done. Congratulations on making the most talked-about list with your first entry on the Realm!
Thank you! For me, a Darkseid without glowing red eyes wasn't an option! Thankfully, I pulled it off without any major problems! The base gave me lots of space too! Thanks again!
Nicely done! That even has a fresh but retro quality to it that I like with him being in black. Its very no-nonsense, none of this crazy shock value sizing or overly designed costuming. It allows for the character to be intimidating again. Well done! ~phin
Man, thank you for that! Exactly how I felt. His character has gone through a lot of changes that I felt got a little to far away from the original. Thank you much!
